Ah so it's a pun type joke? Japanese people seem rather fond of it.
I personally like 3-9 4-eva =3
Right so Tusk Act 2 is just a homing Spin.
The Golden Rectangle is quite interesting, mathematically speaking.

Is it the joke where he's saying every day of the week and suddenly becomes retarded? Because the only thing I found funny about that were his faces
I heard there's a Japanese comedian whose schtick is to say the days of the week in a goofy way. Apparently that's a reference to him.

OK I'm reading the Civil War arc in Part 7 now and
EDIT: Speaking of which, Civil War's ability is similar to Underworld, not that it's an issue really, but the concept behind Civil War makes it a dangerous Stand to battle against.
of the Corpse assembled in the church, the heart is among them; wasn't that in Valentine's possesion early at the start of the race?

Funny:
Yes that is correct, the heart as assumed with story has been in possession of Funny longer than any corpse part. He of course gave it up for the total body to be completed
Civil War seems broken now but you'll see.
Very topical with the era and the location of the part

Yes it goes to show how Jojo villains aren't "evil". They are grey and have their reasons and logic for what they do.

And Kira.
And Diavolo.
Not sure how it's possible for those two to not be evil.
And Diavolo.

Well Dio, Kars, and Diavolo literally just want to rule the world with their power. And Pucci has his own illogical reasoning for his motives which can sorta be considered ruling with power.
Kira doesn't really have any intentions of world domination, he just wants to live a quiet life. He could of killed every stand user in Duwang, except maybe Jotaro, but he chose to stay hidden because he isn't pure evil. I guess living a normal life with the occasional killing a girl might be considered evil, but he is pretty low on the Jojo scale of evil.

Killing a girl and the girl's family so that he can then cut off her hand and play with it isn't pure evil ? Hmm probably , I think that is more like mental issue .
Kira is not so much as evil, but crazy.

I see him more as an assassin that clearly had mental problems.
I'd like to get into more details but it would be spoiler heavy. Aside from the aforementioned villains above, most jojo foes are people that snapped in some way. Thus they lead themselves to be bad. I actually was going to say pucci wasn't really evil. LOL he's a crazy dio fanboy

Yeah, Pucci isn't really "evil" he only did what he did because
of his love for Dio.

No connections = no leverage for anyone to use against him = being untouchable is how I summed it up.
What leverage would someone gain by knowing who he was? Freeze his bank account? Threaten to kill his daughter? Arrest him?
Oh, ok.

There's more to it but yeah the answer is right there. Stand users can do tons of stuff man

Also paranoia. I'm pretty sure Diavolo had to be pretty damn paranoid.

So, judging from the summary, not too much happened apparently...

Another month to wait for the stand to be shown and it's music reference. Feels bad man.

@SolarKnight- Nah I think it was mostly Joshuu and JoJo observing and getting affected by the Stand to study it and find a way of defeating it.
I was JUST about to ask about this lol.

Okay, so let's see, the full contents of the 20,000 yen JOJOVELLER box set are:
- the main artbook "Jojoveller", with 300 pictures from Stone Ocean through JoJolion, along with Araki comments on older illustrations and the pictures at the JoJoten art exhibition you see in the video above.
- the Stand Book, a comprehensive guidebook that describes every single Stand in the series so far, with Araki commentary on each (maybe this will finally settle all the KC/GER debates).
- the History Book, with interviews between Araki and all his former editors.
- finally, two Blu-ray documentaries, as seen in the last two short clips above -- one that focuses on the JoJoten exhibition, and one on Araki's studio and working process.

A really powerful stand user could kill him if they ever snuck up on him. He would have to have Epitaph on 24/7 and I think he wanted to avoid that.

Holy shit, I need this if only for the artbooks XO.

I'm amazed that Jojo got a whole exhibition.

I seriously hope that at least the stand database gets translated by someone. At the very least GER and KC?
And damn, the Jojoveller trailer sure puts into perspective how big the series/Araki is.

^ I think that was probably a nod to the rock influence the series has. Or it was just wtfness to put into the ep
What I love about Jojo is that Araki has never(as far as I can tell) let his creative integrity give way to sales/popularity.

Did he even do that in the manga? I can't remember it like that.
Anyways, Tumblr has provided me with more proof that Cars is indeed the ultimate being.

Everytime I think of Cars, I think of Araki's love of glam rock bands taken to the highest level possible.

Watching the latest episode today and I suddenly realized Cars isn't in ASB yet. Better get on that, CC2.
